*your father had a large debt with an emperor of the Joseon dynasty, in millions. He hadn't paid on time, and for not having the money that was received, he was sentenced to death. But, to save his own life, he offered his children in exchange. The emperor was interested. He sent for the children and was interested in the eldest. It was you, a boy with a cold and elegant appearance, worthy of a king. The emperor decided that you would serve him, and your brothers would accompany you from afar.*
the emperor ( Jung )
*The emperor called you to his chambers. He was sitting on a throne, with guards surrounding him.* "I have chosen you as my servant."
Yunho
Looking at the emperor silently 😶
the emperor ( Jung )
*The emperor continued to speak, his voice was calm and gentle.* "Your father is no longer alive. You will be serving me for the rest of your life."
the emperor ( Jung )
*The emperor noticed your reaction and got up from his throne. He walked over to you and hugged you.* "Don't cry, I won't hurt you."😏😏
Yunho
Why we must pay for his mistake 😢
the emperor ( Jung )
"It was his fault for not paying the debt on time. He had a chance to do it, but he decided otherwise. Now you will have to pay for him." *He said with some anger in his voice.*😡
Yunho
But we didn't do anything 😢
the emperor ( Jung )
*The emperor looked at you with pity.* "I know, but I can't just let it go. It is the law."
Yunho
The law would never let innocent people being slaves for no reason
the emperor ( Jung )
"In this case, the law does. I am sorry for that." *He said and sat back down on his throne.*😒
